Who’s the hottest act lighting up the strip club stage? If you’re betting on Lauren Phillips, you’re not alone. The fiery redhead, known for her jaw-dropping adult film scenes and relentless hustle, just snagged a nomination for Feature Entertainer of the Year at the 2025 Exotic Dancer Awards. After nailing the Club Favorite Entertainer title last year, she’s gunning for another crystal trophy to add to her shelf. But can she pull it off again?
Lauren Phillips: The Redhead Reigning Supreme
Lauren’s no stranger to the spotlight. Whether she’s directing steamy scenes, streaming as a gamer, or shaking it on stage, this multi-talented star knows how to own a room. Her nomination for Feature Entertainer of the Year is no fluke—she’s out there grinding, performing at clubs nationwide two to three weekends a month. That’s the kind of hustle that makes club owners and fans take notice.
Voting’s open until July 24, and Lauren’s rallying the troops—club owners, industry pros, anyone with a stake in the game—to #rockthevote. The big reveal? That’s happening August 26 at the Criss Angel Theater in Planet Hollywood, Las Vegas, during the ED Annual Expo. It’s a glitzy night where the adult nightlife world crowns its best, and Lauren’s name is buzzing loud.
More Than Just a Pretty Face
Lauren’s not just banking on her stage charisma. She’s also in the running for the ED Honors Awards, with potential nods for Industry Innovator of the Year, Businesswoman of the Year, and the Carol Doda Award, a tribute to the trailblazing first topless entertainer. These aren’t fan-voted; the ED Honors Board picks the winners, and Lauren’s diverse resume—actress, director, influencer, Lauren Phillips—makes her a serious contender.
“I’m honored to be up for such a prestigious award… We’re one big family and support one another. Please vote for me and [The Pony Clubs]. It means a lot to us.”
– Lauren Phillips
That’s the kind of heart that sets her apart. She’s not just in it for herself—she’s repping The Pony Clubs, where she’s an ambassador. And they’re cleaning up with nominations too.
Pony Clubs Steal the Spotlight
The Pony Clubs are no small players in the strip club game. They’re up for a slew of awards, and Lauren’s cheering them on like family. Here’s what they’re chasing:

- Club of the Year Central Region: The Pony Club, Starkville, MS
